After reading this article we will learn about the synthesis of Acetylcholine (Ach). Acetylcholine (Ach) is the neurotransmitter at parasympathetic neuro-effector junctions, all autonomic ganglia, adrenal medulla, somatic neuromuscular junctions, and CNS. Synthesis, Storage and Release of Ach: Ach is synthesized in the cholinergic nerve endings. After a reaction among acetate, coenzyme A and ATP, acetyl CoA is formed within [...]
In this article we will discuss about the role of protons in the synthesis of ATP in energy transducing membranes, explained with the help of a suitable diagram. It is known that electron carrier chains are implanted in specialized membranes. Whenever an energy recovery and a synthesis of ATP are coupled with the reoxidation of a chain of e- carriers, [...]
The synthesis of enzymes - or more generally, the synthesis of proteins — implies the incorporation of amino acids in an order dictated by the genetic information. Control of the Expression of Genes at the Level of Transcription: In addition to the adaptation mechanisms operating in the cells in response to changes in environmental conditions, cellular differentiation and development imply [...]
